Hi, guys!
My question means R5 is intended for professionals /videographers and with an excessive price (and some issues to be solved). R6 is too short in terms of resolution and stills is paid for video. All the other mirrorless cameras have no IBIS and are older/weaker!
What so many of us would expect? I'd say a camera almost like R5 with no video at all, with a 'reasonable' price, or like R6 but with about 42 MP, with no video and a great price!!! Am I the only one to hope for such a camera? No! At least I know in my circle a dozen of friends. A small circle. I wonder how about all around the world!
I started with Canon in 1978 and did it with the great F1! All along all these years I bought the A1, the unique RT, the T90, and then EOS 5, EOS 3, then the 20D and the 7D! And stopped when something started missing. Then the age claimed for something lighter on my back. I needed Canon would also go mirrorless at a level of about the 'old' EOS 3. No video needed. There are many and many photographers! No videographers at the same time. Fair price. Waited and waited and finally, after 41 years of using Canon, I just bought a mirrorless Fujifilm X-H1 body, with IBIS, brand new, with Power Booster Grip and 2 more batteries for just 1050 €!!! Then, still waiting for a miracle, I bought the great priced fujinon 16-80mm f:4. And finally now, for my over 20 Canon lenses (FD and EF), I bought 2 great adapters to use them on my Fuji camera! What a great decision and save of money!
Ok, I must confess I still hope for such a camera from my first love, though each time more I start doubting Canon will do it! It looks like video overcomes photography as well as only (very) expensive or cheap cameras sell! In-between, towards the high end but for advanced amateurs (photographers, only), with a reasonable price... Canon put apart! And so, I guess so many canonists will change for more realistic brands in gear key specs (Fuji, Sony, Pentax,...). Pity, Canon!!!
Anyone thinking or hoping like me?
